15 Big boxes to keep

I think that might work but if you want to be brutal, as is the case here, the love should be able to suffer some adversity!

Going from the mentions here Brass:Lancs, Beyond the Sun, Hansa Teutonica and Rallyman all get 4 or more votes (6, 6, 5, 4). so all will stay.
Then there are loads with three votes!

Now I am asking myself what my „stay in“ criteria really are? At the moment, I think it boils down to: „do I intend to play this game again?“ While I strive to get to „will I ever play this copy of the game again?“ and at some point maybe getting to something harsher… not there yet…

I would prefer to have a smaller better curated collection but that would require me to be able to play games more often and regularly. So so many games in the last two years were bought with the „intention“ of playing them… and there is the struggle between my own tastes and what works well on game-night.

Ah well, the next culling is calling from the stack of empty boxes to my right.

A secondary reason for the shrinking.

The kiddos are getting onto superfiller games now. The larger gaming community has many many games, so I can own fewer games and everything else can be outsourced to them (such as 18XX)

I’m of little help here – of the remainder, I’m only familiar with Junk Art and Survive: Escape from Atlantis and I have no plans to get rid of either of them.

If I was forced to choose between those two… aaahhhh… I don’t even like that question. They’re so different. I think I’d keep Survive, but I’m not convinced it’s the right decision.
